They said you had to download a program formerly known as Azureus and now Vuze. So I did that but still wasn't able to play the mixtape.
Is there anything else I need to download to be able to play Torrent files?]]>72eBay hacked: members advised to change pwdWed, 21 May 2014 18:54:55 +0000https://www.whitewomenblackmen.com/forum/threads/ebay-hacked-members-advised-to-change-pwd.25572/

This is sorta depressing and forces moi to send all videos by link instead of just embedding the image into the email.

It is being dropped this month and will be available as an app purchase/download through the Mac app store.

I have fewer components and can do just about anything along with normal computer related stuff. I can skip and delete commercials, compress video into h.264 and other formats to save HD space. I can watch TV Live or Recorded and have something recording in the background. I can download a torrent or a streaming video with an app that allows me to watch Zinc, Boxee or Hulu. I have my DVD's ripped and ready to play, no need to load or unload disc.
